Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
The Rab Cirrus Flex Hoody requires no specific setup. It is designed to be worn as an insulating layer, either on its own or as part of a layering system.
Compatibility:
- Layering: The slim fit makes it compatible as a mid-layer with a waterproof or windproof shell jacket. It can also be layered over lighter base layers.
- Headwear: The hood is designed to fit over most climbing or mountaineering helmets.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a suitable technical wash or mild detergent. Close all zippers and fastenings before washing. Wash separately.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with tennis balls to help restore loft to the insulation. Do not use fabric conditioners or bleach.
- Storage: Store the jacket loosely to allow the insulation to maintain its loft. Avoid storing it compressed for long periods.
- DWR Maintenance: The Fluorocarbon-Free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish will naturally wear off over time. Reapply a suitable DWR treatment after washing if water no longer beads on the surface.
